Does this occur only in this one file, or in all Excel files?

Under what circumstance(s) does this occur?

All the time, some of the time, only this once?

What are you copying ?

From where and to?

How do you know it is copied to the clipboard?

I highlight the cells/contents i want to copy (either right click copy or
Ctrl C), Ctrl C C opens the clip board, so i can see the previous things
copied, the paste option does nothing.

sometimes the Ctrl c and Ctrl V works, but then it doesn't,
clearing the clipboard also does not help.

copying just random numbers.

sometimes, i can copy/cut & paste within the same workbook/sheet & at other
times, i can't even do that.

With this being a seemingly random occurrence, it is hard to trouble-shoot.

CTRL + C + C brings up the CB and you can see the copied data?

CTRL + V will sometimes paste.

With CB open and data copied select another cell and "Click an item to paste"

Does it paste in that operation?

Just right-clickcopy and right-clickpaste.........is paste grayed out or
available?

Shot-gunning here as you can see<g

Another thing that can cause this is if you have login session(s) on multiple
servers from your computer open at the same time.

updated office)
